Felted Bell Ornaments
by Purl Soho
MATERIALS
Almost any pretty yarn that felts will do. Please note that a few of the yarns I used have been discontinued but any non-superwash yarn should do the trick! Here’s what I used:
- Blue Sky’s Sportweight Alpaca, 100% Baby Alpaca. This color is Natural White.
- Blue Sky’s Suri Merino, 60% Baby Suri, 40% Merino. This color is Snow.
- Blue Sky’s Brushed Suri, 67% Baby Suri, 22% Merino, 11% Bamboo. This color is Whipped Cream.
- Blue Sky’s Techno, 68% Baby Alpaca, 10% Extra Fine Merino, 22% Silk. This color is Fame.
You will also need…
- Handbehg Felt Balls. The size depends on your yarn and which bell size you knit. I used the 1 cm, 1.5 and 2 cm sizes (see below for specifics).
- DMC Metallic Embroidery Floss. This color is Silver.
- An embroidery needle
GAUGE
The precise gauge for this pattern isn’t crucial, but it is important that you use a needle two sizes larger than you normally would (or than the recommended size) in order to achieve a very loose knit.
SIZES
Large Bell (Small Bell)
